So does this BOSE-Einstein condensation thing, mean that wood and all materials can be turned into let's say, liquid?

That would really work? I thought you needed a lot of pressure to inflate the skirt.

Friction Is that because it has no friction? Also is solid gas possible, sorry but I'm not too skilled in this area?

Pictures of atoms. Hi, sorry for posting this, but I was wanting to know if there is an actual picture of an atom. Picture as in a scan or something like that. Has a Microscope even been made that can see that small a structure?

You can just e-mail it to me.

QUOTE=Danger]You certainly can do it that way, and keep your lift independent of the thrust. An easier way, though, is to use the motor/fan aimed backward and simply duct part of the propulsion air downward through a hole in the deck. So how would I do this. You can use paint if you want and...

Oh, so no matter how fast the blower can blow,it doesn't matter if it doesn't have enough power/force. It's like a car that can go very fast, but can't go up a steep hill; it has the speed but not the power. Is this how it works with hovercrafts? Could I use a pump then, to inflate my skirt...

Ground effect THats little R/C is cool! You said it's not a hovercraft, but ground effect. What is ground effect, and can you make a machine that uses ground effect for personal use instead of a Hovercraft? And be cann, I mean is it possible for someone with little experience to make it, like a HC?

No. I don't. Thats why I wanted to learn what was involved. My Grandfather was actually wanting to look into, as he wants a ultralight plane or something related to it. Thanks though.

See I look at that, but it was too small, the HC, so I made a new post to satisfy what I wanted too know. Oh, I thought mythbuster did an episode on HC's. It really required that much power(for high speed)? So with water or un-flt areas, it takes a lot extra? So, I was wanting a hovercraft...

I thought, though, that it requires more power, etc. to make a HC run over/on water?

I searched though other threads, and didn't find much, although I limted my search cuase this sites kinda slow. "The kind of hovercraft you're talking about is big, about the size of a small boat, and you'll need a lot of power for it, like 50hp-100hp between the lift and thrust IMO." I'm not...

I know cheap isn't going to be cheap.

Ok, to clarify, I meant cheap as in, building a Helicopter and not buying a$15,000 motor and things. Yeah, I'm not going to buuld the frame out of duct tape...I was saving that for the motor parts.

Ok, I heard that you could make a cheap, but good helicopter, that's a 1-2 seater, relatively easy. How could this be done?
